Pottermore and Google team up to enable Harry Potter ebooks push to Google Books libraries

When JK Rowling’s new website Pottermore opens its doors this Fall, we’ll provide services to help fans make the most of their ebook purchasing experience.
Pottermore and Google are teaming up to integrate Pottermore with a number of Google products and APIs. So when the series of
Harry Potter
ebooks launches on Pottermore.com in early October, these bestsellers will be available in the U.S. via the open
Google eBooks
platform. When you buy a Harry Potter ebook from
Pottermore
, you will be able to choose to keep it in your
Google Books
library in-the-cloud, as well as on other e-reading platforms.
Google eBooks can be read on most devices with a modern browser, through the Google Books apps for iOS and Android smartphones and tablets, and on more than 80 ereaders.
Pottermore will be the exclusive place to buy Harry Potter ebooks and digital audiobooks. You’ll be able to buy ebooks from the Pottermore Shop, push them to your Google Books library and store them alongside your other Google eBooks. Your other Google eBooks may be purchased from any of more than 250 independent booksellers or from Google directly.
Also under this agreement,
Google Checkout
will be the preferred third party payment platform for all purchases made on Pottermore.com. When you visit the Pottermore Shop, you’ll be able to pay for your purchases using Google Checkout, in addition to using a debit or credit card.
The Pottermore team also plans to use YouTube for global video broadcasts in the future, as they did for
JK Rowling’s announcement
of Pottermore in June.
Stay tuned for more Pottermore and Google wizardry on the web this summer, leading up to when Pottermore opens.
